The update also introduces a new 3D Paint system, making it possible to texture assets within KeyShot by painting directly onto the surface of the model, rather than having to export them to other DCC apps. New 3D texture painting and material management toolsets In addition, simulations do not currently take account of other animations in a scene. The system only works with meshes rather than NURBS or other curve objects, and does not support soft bodies. It is also possible to set the total time for a simulation, and the number of keyframes generated per second. Simulations may be applied to objects, groups of objects or Model Sets, with users able to control the results by setting parameter values for Gravity, Friction and Bounciness. Major new features in KeyShot 11 include the Physics Simulation tool, for creating simple rigid body dynamics simulations like objects “falling, sliding and bouncing”. New Physics Simulation tool adds rigid body dynamics to a scene The firm has also discontinued perpetual licences of the software, making it available subscription-only, with entry-level edition KeyShot HD replaced by a new subscription-only product, KeyShot Personal Edition. Luxion has released KeyShot 11, a major update to its rendering and technical animation software that introduces new 3D paint and physics capabilities, and a CMF material management system.
